Well, that's an amusing idea.

>Working Star Trek communications badge using M5StickC PLUS2 and Home Assistant. Tap your badge, issue voice commands, control your ship... er, home. Based on arduinohw but significantly evolved.
A wearable voice control device that uses tap detection, voice recording, AI transcription, and Home Assistant integration to control your smart home with natural voice commands; all while looking like a proper Starfleet comm badge, and costing under 25 quid. I used Groq as the free tier for Whisper never seems to hit the limit for home auto commands. Even with heavy use, you don't send that many commands, so I've not yet hit the limit. You can choose your own AI provider though. The M5StickC PLUS2 has a magnet built into its case, so it combines with the cheap magnetic Star Trek comm badge to stick to your shirt, while still detecting the taps through the badge (tap sensitivity is adjustable). I'd like to make it a little faster yet, but it's currently trading that off against battery life.
